comes up with an error, or won’t even recognise the
drive properly at all. Don’t despair because here is
something you can do.

can be a mine field. The last thing you want is to
finish the process and end up with an unusable
pendrive . Here is a quick step by step guide to Format
pendrive using cmd
STEPS TO FORMAT PENDRIVE USING

This guide formats your flash drive as FAT32 , to
format as NTFS simply substitute the term in the

style by this guide but many do prefer NTFS. Follow
the Below steps to Format an unformatable Pendrive.
Step 1. Turn on computer as normal
Step 2. Once you are in your desktop insert Pendrive

your disk locations or can use a utility such as disk
part to list this information then skip steps 3 and 4

start menu or desktop) and look down the navigation
panel on the left hand side, this lists down to the
popular and root menu folders and locations on your
computer.

a letter,

the Windows symbol depending on your edition of
